Kristen Irving: Most authentic frijoles (pinto) I've had outside of homemade. Delish guac. Everything is amazing.
OC Weekly: Try the Enchilada Combo, but only the carne asada enchilada with red sauce, rice and refried beans. And don't forget to chomp on a fresh serrano chile before each and every bite! Read more.
Tram Nguyen: Shrimp & blackened fish tacos. Yum
Travel Costa Mesa: Authentic Italian cuisine for lunch and dinner. The lasagna is incredible! See the complete menu here: Read more.
Mike White: Really authentic Italian food. Date and I shared a Cesar salad and each got the Prosciutto and Veal dish, which was excellent.
Mea Elise: Thursday night wine tastings is a real treat, great wine, a little history and very reasonable price point. It's a must do!!
Justin Ordoveza: The sisig fries are amazing, it's definitely authentic when it comes to the sisig, the pork cheeks is what makes it. It's like Filipino carne asada fries. Great happy hour and a great deal.
Lindsay: The specialty cocktails are the most unique drinks I've seen in years. You've got to try their take on the Moscow Mule, Druid Divination or Holiday in Cambodia.
OC Weekly: Find tasty and creative culinary creations at Chapter One! Bacon-wrapped steaks, Panna cotta, Greek kataifi, and more. Voted Best New Restaurant in OC Weekly's Best of 2011 Issue.
Jason Shellhammer: Parking is an issue. But do your best, because it’s totally worth it. Everything is good. Esp, for late night munchies.
Danny Oliva: Al Pastor won best "big" burrito by OC Register in June of 2015
Mark: Anything on the menu will be great, but classic tacos can’t be beat!

Michael Fourre: Moody bratwurst joint featuring unique sausages and plentiful topping varieties. Excellent beer selection comprised of mostly European beers, primarily German and Belgian.
Rj St Thomas: This place is awesome! Great beer and sausages! I recommend the foot long smoked Hungarian sausage and the Wildboar!
Bob Bretall: You get a pretty large order of fries, one is enough for 2 people.This is a great place for beer drinkers. Soda choices are kind of limited (and available in bottles only)
Offbeat L.A.: Opened 1967. Traditional Jewish Deli. Authentic, with deep orange booths and counter seats, laminate wood and a deli case.
The Termite Guy: Get the Benjie's Special pastrami sandwich with Swiss cheese and a vanilla egg cream to drink!

Ryan Burns: Friendliest 2 or 3 dudes that work here. The avocado toast is $5, which seemed pricey at first but is 100% worth it. Cheesy, thick, bacon flavored toast with fresh avocado and salt on top.
Sarah Campbell: the chai is amazing :)
Mahsa Heidari: Great latte!
